BOOK SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY TICKETS
Loved Obsession the first time around but want to see it with amped-up tension? The sleeper success is landing in 4DX for the first time – and there really is nothing quite as exhilarating as watching a great horror film in 4DX. The subtle movements that coincide with well-timed shocks will intensify the experience, making key twists feel even twistier.
Cars speeds into Cineworld’s 4DX screens for the first time
It’s been 20 years since Cars first zoomed across our screens and what better way to celebrate those four-wheelers than a 4DX watch at Cineworld.
Pixar’s Lightning McQueen loses his way in Radiator Springs, where he befriends tow truck Mater and retired racing legend Doc Hudson, setting him on the right path. Metaphorically speaking, that is.
The Odyssey in IMAX: cinema at its most epic
Watch Christopher Nolan’s epic in the format it was shot in. The Odyssey made history as the first film ever shot entirely with IMAX cameras, so experience cinema bliss during National Cinema Weekend. Journey back home to Icarus and book IMAX tickets for just £6.
BOOK THE ODSSEY £6 IMAX TICKETS
See Toy Story 5, Moana, Paw Patrol and other family films for £4
You know how saucer-eyed kids get while they’re watching a movie? Well, expect their eyes to get even bigger watching some of the biggest family filmreleases on the big screen.
From Toy Story 5 to Minions & Monsters, that ocean gets even more vast as Moana transforms into Disney’s latest live action.
Similarly, the desert chase in Coyote vs Acme will look immense, with Road Runner haring across the screen and Acme gadget disasters and explosions keeping you and your kids on the edge of your seat.
Personally, we can’t wait to see Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie. Fans, young and old, will be treated to the pups’ latest roarsome adventure in maximum size.
Be first to see these new movies for £4
‘It’s what they wanted. They wanted us to be scared.’ Romance/horror mash-up Leviticus certainly does that in this nightmare story. You’ve fallen in love, but the object of your desire becomes inhabited by an evil entity. Nightmare, right? See for yourself at a knock-down ticket price during National Cinema Weekend. Spines will tingle.
Any merriment usually associated with Robin Hood is nowhere to be seen in The Death of Robin Hood, a dark thriller in which an aged Robin must confront his violent past. From A24 Films, Hugh Jackman takes the lead.
We haven’t had a whimsical homegrown film in a while, but it’s okay because The Incomer is on its way, and we can’t wait. The Scottish film, starring Domhnall Gleeson as a meek council worker who comes to tempt reclusive siblings living on a remote island back to the mainland, has won over Sundance Film Festival audiences and garnered strong reviews. Be among the first to see it on its general release date of 4 September. When else can you get to see a brand-new movie for £4, but at National Cinema Weekend?
Another hit at Sundance, Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass is a fresh-from-the-tin film that you can see at Cineworld this weekend. A comedy starring Zoey Deutch and Jon Hamm, the plot brings the idea of the ‘celebrity pass’ to life, with the bride-to-be heading to Hollywood to realise hers.
Terminator 2 returns for National Cinema Weekend
Honor an exciting anniversary – Terminator 2: Judgment Day turns 35. So get yourself down to Cineworld and watch the ground-breaking visual effects and fantastic action sequences in their rightful format – the big screen – definitely an opportunity not to be missed.
